DasKeyWell that's the tricky part. I have 100% ebay feedback (username: Sakfaz85) but on ebay both the seller, and the buyers are protected, this way me, and you both are not protected, so we have to trust each other, also if your headphones arrive with some issues from the factory, it would get very expensive to get them replaced.

HarisJavedHmm.. So would you recommend me get this drop or just buy it locally (hd650) ? If so, how much would the shipping cost?

DasKeyI would say buying an HD 650 locally is a safer choice, I am not sure how much they are in Malaysia, but I think the 6xx might end up costing you the same. 6xx = 199.99$ + USPS shipping to Malaysia (anywhere from 66 to 86 usd) - so if hd 650 is costing the same in Malaysia, I would say that is a safer option, I own both headphones, they sound identical to me - the color is a bit different. Here is the shipping cost from USPS to Malaysia.

HarisJavedstill cheaper though. 199+80 = 279 (RM 1141.33). HD 650 here cost nearly RM2399 ( $586.44). Disadvantage of living in 3rd world Well I don't mind getting a used 6xx from you if you don't mind lol (I can save a few bucks) I just read your ebay feedback and yah, nice feedback I really want it but i'm very skeptical as I never use any forwarder.
What do you think?

DasKeywow...586$ is very expensive! (I am thinking taxes/import fees) - but do you think those fee's would still apply if you bought the 6xx (which sometimes can be the case). Regarding my ebay feedback, I have in the past shipped items outside of US without any issues. Even sold a car :). I do use my 6xx quite a bit right now, but If I do decide to sell it I will let you know, I am looking at purchasing the new 660S, and might sell the 650 or the 6xx

HarisJavedWell, the $586 is just a rough conversion. I'm pretty sure the retail here markup it abit. I've never bought anything outside of my country so I don't know if it still applies the tax or not. but I assume the USPS already finalized the all cost price.

DasKeyHi DasKey - no unfortunately USPS does not calculate any local taxes / import fees. I know this from selling things on ebay internationally. Once the item arrives in some cases (depends on the country) people still have to pay extra taxes / import fees. You might be able to find that out, if you called your local mail provider, and they should be able to tell you if you will have to pay extra or not. btw Malaysia is a beautiful place, my parents visited Malaysia 2 years ago, and they loved it.

DasKeyhttps://ezbuy.my/ShipForMe/IWantToForward Use this. Shipping address is stated there. Put the shipping address as the delivery address for your purchase in Massdrop/Amazon/eBay. You will have to wait till the shipment of Massdrop is made, then you can submit the order for "ship for me" in ezbuy.

DasKey Hey fellows,
Another M'sian here (who made it in for the 6XX drop in 2016), if you're in a bit of a rush I suggest getting it from BHPhotoVideo or Amazon, and shipping it to a freight forwarder. The charges can be a bit much but I'm guessing 40-60USD on top of the price? The price beats Jaben selling at well over MYR 2K. Only concern is if you get it now, the customs folks may take the opportunity to have a bit of 'tea', so close to Christmas.
Also, @DasKey , try using PayPal to make the payment if your CC is declined. Mine was declined the first few times too (Perhaps MD isn't automatically recognized as a vendor so it gets rejected outside of working hours).

TheReubieI can get HD650 at 1.4k using forwarder tbh. I just read the paypal process. Takes around 1~3days for account linking verification. Not enough time for this drop then. I probably wait next drop.

DasKeyI would say that the HD 650 will benefit from a good amp / dac - I used to run my HD 650 out of my iphone 6 fine (when I didnt own HA- 2 / Idsd) , but its not spectacular. I also ran it out of Schiit Lyr 2, and I didnt like the sound quality (it became too lean) - now I run it through either JDS element OR IFI Micro Idsd / oppo HA-2, and it sounds wonderful. I like analytical sound a bit more than musical, so most of my DACS are sabre 9xxx, my reference dac is Audio gd master 11 which is becoming a bit outdated, but still sounds good. I dont use it very much because I dont have a lot of space now

DasKeyQuote from the edited pinned post:
" UPDATE 11/30: The 3.5k units from the drop in November are being processed. 6.5k will still be available in this batch through the end of December. Both are expected to ship around the same time, but members from the November drop will be first in line if we have to ship in multiple batches. "
Guess they weren't being snapped up like hot cakes this time around.
